UtiliTrak® is an ideal choice for running two systems in parallel, where one slide uses DualVee® guide wheels and the other uses MadeWell® crowned rollers. Because precise parallelism is difficult to achieve, it is not uncommon for mounting surfaces to be slightly out of parallel. UtiliTrak®'s design compensates for mounting errors, and does not require absolute parallelism for accurate operation. The DualVee® guide wheel plate assembly and vee channel serves as the motion side, while the MadeWell® crowned roller and open channel side allows for parallel misalignment.
SW Series includes carbon steel guide wheels running on a hardened bearing grade carbon steel linear track channel for larger loads and smooth operation.
SW Series UtiliTrak® is ideal for medium to heavy duty transport applications, and offers high speeds, excellent load capacity, smooth antifriction operation, and debris tolerance.
- C channel is used as a parallel guide to Vee channel, with added misalignment tolerance.
- Use SW crown roller wheel plates or VC Series wheel plates in C channel
- Linear track channel is one-piece, hardened and precision ground 52100 carbon steel
- Linear track running surface smooth to Ra 0.8 micrometers
